Chris Conrad Eliminated in 3rd Place ($86,372)
It's unusual for two big hands to run into one another when three-handed, but when they do there tends to be big fireworks. That's exactly what just happened when a preflop raising war took place between Tripp Kirk and Chris Conrad that saw the latter all in with 
and up against the former's 
.
Conrad, who began the day as chip leader, was clearly dejected, and even more so when the flop came down 

. The
turn sent Conrad from his seat, while the
river sent him out the door in third place, good for $86,372.
